Clare Brodie’s paintings have a calming beauty with quiet strength.
Brodie fuses her emotional internal landscape with nature, deciphering complexities into deceptively simple compositions with a uniform finish that belies all effort and process.
As a colour block painter Brodie follows her credio – colour is precious by using high-intensity saturated colours within a neutral palette.
Working in conceptual series, Brodie explores and discovers a unique visual language for each series. Her work is continually evolving and reflecting her current state of being.
Sydney based, Brodie is represented by galleries in Australia, New Zealand and the United States. Her collectors extend to Asia and England. Brodie has been a multiple finalist in the Mosman, Raw and Waverley art prizes.
